“As a distance-learning student, it was nice to see options for help that took my work and lifeschedule into consideration. My professor was willing to help me in any topic I needed until I was able to tackle problems on my own. This experience alone was instrumental in motivating me to do well—not just for the class, but for the program, too.”
